Chapter 228 New Empirical Medicine

"I was really scared just now. I thought there was a chance that the suicide note I left this week would be read out, but luckily it wasn't..." Hu Yonglin said thankfully while dealing with the corpses left by the monsters on the battlefield.

A garrison warrior asked curiously, "Captain Hu, what did you leave this week?"

Hu Yonglin said embarrassedly: "Xiao Cui gave me some eggs last week, and I wrote in my suicide note this week to express my gratitude to her..."

"What thanks? It must be a confession, right?" The warrior next to him said jokingly, "Who would say thanks in a suicide note? It must be a confession!"

"Go away!" Hu Yonglin blushed, "Xiao Cui and I are just ordinary friends..."

"Just ordinary friends. I recorded this sentence and will play it for Xiao Cui when I have the chance."

Hu Yonglin glared: "How dare you!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

…

The appearance of a beast tide cannot be predicted in advance, and casualties among the defending warriors are common.

Not every beast wave has strong men like the swordsman present.

So generally speaking, everyone leaves a suicide note in advance, about one note per week on average. In the beginning, everyone takes it seriously and writes something heavier, but as time goes by and the mood changes, the content of the suicide note keeps changing - the more you write, the more you lose the original feeling.

The more you write, the more informal the content of the suicide note will become. One suicide note a week is a hard requirement of the Border Defense Department, which means that the garrison warriors must leave at least one suicide note every week. After all, no one knows who will come first, an accident or tomorrow, so you have to prepare in advance.

During their tenure, the resident warriors would keep every suicide note carefully, and when they retired, they would pass them around with their colleagues and laugh at each other.

Or, after the death in battle, the comrades or family members read it out at the memorial service - those indecent contents may dilute the sadness a little. ωωw. cascoo

“What a horrible human being.”

Only then did the Mountain God Tree finally come to its senses and sighed with lingering fear.

"Xiao Jiruo, what are those iron lumps? Why can they produce such terrifying power even though there is no power fluctuation?"

Ji Ruo said: "Grandpa Mu, the mountain god, that is a missile, a technological weapon made by our scientists."

"Technology?" Shanshenmu thought for a moment, "Just like a cell phone?"

Ji Ruo nodded: "Well, mobile phones are also technological products, and if we only talk about the technological content, the technological content of mobile phones seems to be higher than that of missiles."

"hiss!"

The branches of the Mountain God Tree shrank, making a slightly harsh hissing sound, as if it was sucking in cool air.

Then Shanshenmu whispered: "Cellphones are so dangerous, I don't want them anymore... Xiao Jiruo, if you need to find me in the future, call Jinglan. She has a cellphone and she can fly fast, so she's not afraid of explosions..."

Ji Ruo: “?”

Luo Xi also took out her cell phone with tears in her eyes and handed it to Ji Ruo, trembling and saying, "Meow~ (Master, you didn't tell me that this thing would explode... and explode so violently...)"

Ji Ruo was at a loss for words, what the hell was going on?

He patiently explained to them what technological content was, and his lips were almost worn out. Only then did Rosie put her phone back with doubt.

Shanshenmu looked at Luo Xi's phone thoughtfully.

"It's such a small piece, even if it explodes it shouldn't have much power, right? In that case, I still have the phone..."

Ji Ruo: “…”

In Babao Village, Jinglan was helping to comfort the frightened villagers. She seemed to have shrunk to about two meters in height at some point, and her soft voice was a stark contrast.

The portal has been destroyed by the Eye Demon. Gu Xingzhou has not returned from chasing the statue, and a small number of villagers have not yet moved. There was even a villager who was about to enter the portal, but was caught off guard and had his leg cut off by the sudden closure of the portal. He is now wailing.

"Mountain God Tree, bring some Life-Regenerating Fruits. Some villagers are injured here."

"Okay, okay, I'll come right over."

The two five-star monsters were more approachable than ever before. Looking at Jing Lan's gentle appearance, Ji Ruo gradually felt his whole body begin to heat up...

"Um?!"

Ji Ruo's face changed, "My Qi and blood, how could it be..."

Shanshenmu turned around and said cheerfully, "Do you feel it? I've heard from your human scholars that you have a great need for blood and qi at this stage. Each of these new fruits condenses the essence of the blood and qi of an entire monster. I have already refined that essence, so it shouldn't be difficult for you to absorb it."

Ji Ruo's face turned red and his whole body felt hot.

He felt his energy and blood were more abundant than ever before, and the energy consumed in the first half of the night was completely recovered in an instant. However, the new grape-shaped spiritual fruit was still continuously releasing its medicinal power in his body.

“Ahem!”

Ji Ruo coughed up a mouthful of blood - it was too damn pungent, he couldn't stand it!

"Grandpa Mu, the mountain god, next time, could you tell me about the effects of the new spiritual fruit in advance..."

Ji Ruo jumped off the tree chair helplessly and started practicing Tai Chi, hoping to use Tai Chi to refine the surging Qi and blood in his body.

Tai Chi is an internal martial art. In terms of training effect alone, it is definitely better than those basic martial arts taught in school. More importantly, Tai Chi training is more comprehensive and can even train the internal organs.

At this moment, the energy and blood in Ji Ruo's body surged, so that his Tai Chi no longer had a gentle feeling. Every move was extremely powerful. The energy and blood surged, and his muscles and bones vibrated in unison!

A dull sound rang out in Ji Ruo's body, like the thunder of a tiger or leopard. Thin strands of dark red blood were discharged from Ji Ruo's pores. They were impurities and waste blood in the human body.

The young man performed the extremely powerful Tai Chi over and over again. His fist spirit gradually condensed, and the violent blood and energy were attracted and gradually merged. They began to roam in the body according to Ji Ruo's wishes, breaking through one invisible barrier after another.

The golden protective energy quietly appeared, the golden light gradually became stronger and thicker - the Vajra Indestructible Magic Skill was also improving.

The shadow beneath Ji Ruo, which still had no stable shape, began to fluctuate less and less frequently, and gradually became stable...

Previously, because he did not know the effect of the new spiritual fruits, he only thought that they tasted good and there was a "blockbuster" to watch, so Ji Ruo unknowingly ate dozens of them while "watching the movie" - these new spiritual fruits are said to be the essence of the flesh and blood of a monster, but their actual size is only slightly larger than a grape, and he can eat several in one bite.

Ji Ruo was very happy when he ate it, but now that it has been refined, the swelling in his body is really uncomfortable...

Ji Ruo's fist intent became stronger and stronger, and the force of his fist caused the dust around him to roll up and turn into a vortex, wrapping him up. Many pink leaves on the branches of the Mountain God Tree were also blown down by the wind from his fist, circling around Ji Ruo continuously.

Luo Xi also ate a lot of fruits, even more than Ji Ruo, but this little guy's appetite was really terrible. So many spiritual fruits could not make him feel full. At this moment, he was lying on top of Ji Ruo, grabbing Ji Ruo's hair, his body floating in the air, shouting and yelling.

"Meow~ (Master! I'm going to fly!)"

"Hold on a little longer, I can't stop now!" Ji Ruo's heart could hardly bear the horrible blood and energy, and his heart was beating like a drum.

Chen Mo said: "Teacher Luo Xi, you are so kind to me. You were afraid that I would catch a cold and even covered me with a blanket."

"Meow! (I'm not a quilt!)"

…

Land temple.

The white cat returned to the temple with lingering fear. Ji Xiaoxiao asked curiously, "Dabai, what happened over there just now? I saw someone setting off fireworks."

"My little master, those are not fireworks, they are iron lumps exploding... It's too scary, even if I were in my prime I wouldn't be able to handle it! Humans are so scary!"

"Iron lump?" Ji Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and asked, "What does it look like?"

The white cat gave Ji Xiaoxiao a brief description and also told Ji Xiaoxiao what had just happened.

"It turned out to be a sky rocket." Ji Xiaoxiao said with some nostalgia: "I also let go of it when I was a kid, but not one this big... Do you think Gu Shaoxuan is still alive?"

"Yes." The white cat nodded. "I don't know what tricks that guy used to make one of his arms change into his own appearance. He deceived those strong men and has now escaped."

Ji Xiaoxiao frowned: "It's a pity that he wasn't killed..."

"Don't worry, little master. I know where he is." The white cat said, "When I saw him underground before, he wanted to catch me but failed. I took the opportunity to leave a spiritual mark on him and know where he is."

"Oh? Then why don't you just tell Uncle Gu and the others to go hunt down that guy?"

The white cat said embarrassedly, "I'm afraid that human will hit me. Last time in the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts, he almost killed me with a slap..."

Ji Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "Then tell me where Gu Shaoxuan is now, and I'll go find him."

"Okay, he's at the ..."

…

Without the teleportation gate, it was not very convenient for the remaining villagers to move. The Mountain God Tree asked Jing Lan to carry the remaining villagers directly and fly them into the territory. With the speed of the Wind God Falcon, it would not take much time to go back and forth.

Jing Lan was about to nod when she heard a garrison warrior say that once a flying demon enters a certain range of Da Xia, Da Xia's air defense system will be activated, and all kinds of missiles will be launched regardless of the cost until the inbound demon is destroyed...

So Jinglan didn't dare to move.

The swordsman was still outside, flying his sword to patrol the battlefield, looking for any fish that had escaped the net, and Gu Xingzhou had not returned yet.

"Huh? Is everyone here?"

Ji Xiaoxiao trotted all the way to the center of the village. Seeing Shanshenmu and Jinglan there, she smiled and greeted them: "Grandpa Shanshenmu, Aunt Jinglan, nice to meet you. Hello, I am the inner demon of the old man Ji Ruo. My name is Ji Xiaoxiao."

"Little Jiruo?" The mountain god Mu asked in surprise, "How come you have become so small?"

Jing Lan was also stunned for a moment: "啾~ (No, Xiao Ji Ruo is still here... Why is there another Xiao Xiao Ji Ruo?)"

"I've been told that I'm the old guy's inner demon!" Ji Xiaoxiao said no more, and turned to Ji Ruo who was still boxing and said, "Old guy, eh? It seems like you've gained a lot of benefits... Tsk, you're just boxing by yourself, and you can't even keep up with the speed of refining the medicinal power... Really, you're an old man, how can you be so unruly when eating?

Although I don’t know what you ate, can’t you take this nutritious food slowly?

Let's go find someone to fight. What's a warrior without fighting?"

Ji Ruo was panting heavily, and even the breath he exhaled was light red: "Who are you hitting?!"

"Gu Shaoxuan, Dabai knows where that guy is, but she is afraid of Uncle Gu and doesn't dare to come over."

"walk!"

Ji Ruo was boxing and running wildly at the same time, and his movements were extremely brutal.

The medicinal power is still spreading, and the branched meridians are constantly opening up new branches under the impact of the surging medicinal power.

The effect of this new "experience medicine" is really amazing. If one has the inherent talent of "how great and powerful", there will theoretically be no constraints on the growth of the number of Qi channels. It's just that the requirements for Qi and blood are a bit absurd.

And now, the new spiritual fruit produced by the Mountain God Tree has made up for this problem for Ji Ruo very well, and it may even be a bit too much...

The mountain god tree used a small branch to pat Ji Xiaoxiao and asked, "Xiao Ji Ruo, do you need your grandfather's help?"

Ji Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "Grandpa Mu, the mountain god, I don't need your help for now. My old man is in urgent need of a hearty fight to help refine the medicine, otherwise his body can't bear it... If you can help, can you give me a branch? I want the one you have."

"Branches? Of course."

As the Mountain God Tree spoke, a crack appeared in the middle of its body. A long stick with obvious flesh and blood patterns split out from the center of the trunk. It was extended to Ji Xiaoxiao and said, "You want to use it for battle? If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten about it. I have already prepared it for you. This is a part of my core. I came up with this size and shape after consulting with you human scholars. It should be suitable for use as a weapon. Try it and see if it works for you."

Ji Xiaoxiao took it with surprise - this eyebrow-length stick was as long as Ji Ruo's eyebrows, and because of Ji Xiaoxiao's previous self-explosion, the stick was only the size of a thumb. He held the eyebrow-length stick high in both hands, as if he was holding up a pillar of heaven.

But even so, Ji Xiaoxiao still said: "Thank you, Master Mountain God!"

Shanshenmu said cheerfully, "Before, Jinglan gave you two feathers as weapons, and she showed off to me for a long time, saying that I can't give anything else except fruits. Now, let's see how she can laugh at me."

Jing Lan sneered: "啾~ (What if you give it now? I was the one who gave it first!)"

"I gave it to you as a gift, but you are not allowed to use it to laugh at me again."

Ji Xiaoxiao said, "Thank you, but Master Mu, the mountain god, can you give me a smaller one? Just the size of Ji Ruo's palm will do. I want to make a small invention."

"Of course."

As the Mountain God Tree spoke, it separated out another branch of its core according to Ji Xiaoxiao's request.

Ji Xiaoxiao asked the mountain god tree to tie the small tree core to himself with thin vines, and then he ran wildly carrying the long stick that was like a pillar of heaven to him.

The villagers and warriors on the road were all very surprised when they saw this - it would be strange if they were not surprised to see a stick running on the ground.

Ji Xiaoxiaomo is as small as his name suggests, he is really too small, and that stick is now thicker than his entire body.

Liang Shixian was helping a villager carry his luggage when he suddenly saw a stick coming towards him. He was slightly startled, then squatted down and picked up the stick.

Ji Xiaoxiao's feet were hanging in the air, but he was still running, cursing, "Who the hell caught me? Hurry up and let me go... Hey, it's you, squad leader. I'm in a hurry to deliver equipment to my old friend, please let me go."

"Sending equipment?" Liang Shixian asked in confusion, "Where is Ji Ruo?"

"He went to fight Gu Shaoxuan. Dabai knows where that guy is."

Liang Shixian's heart sank, and he said, "Where is it? I'll go too, to help Ji Ruo."

"Squad leader, you'd better not go." Ji Xiaoxiao said, "I'm speaking frankly, don't take it to heart. With your strength, if you run into Gu Shaoxuan, wouldn't that be like sending food to you? Although Gu Shaoxuan is seriously injured now, he is also in the Golden Body Realm. You are just going to make the game more difficult for your old man!"

"Ah, this..."

Liang Shixian suddenly felt uncomfortable and said, "You are too straightforward!"

"That being said, but..." Liang Shixian hesitated for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "Xiaoxiao, is there a limit to the number of times Ji Ruo can perform that combined move?"

“No.”

"That's good! I can help!"
